Class: December 7, 2010

For today's class, I would like you to refine your idea for your final project. First, I would like you to find a few samples of texts are similar to what you hope to produce for your final project. Then, I would like you to write in the comments a more detailed description of your project. Be specific about things like topic, length, audience, approach, etc.

For Thursday's shortened class (beginning at 4:45), please pick the best post from each of your classmate's blogs.

Class: December 2, 2010

Today your goal is to produce the best written post of your life. It's a lot of pressure. Hopefully, you brought a draft of a post in with you to work with, but if not, you can start from scratch. As you are writing, I would like you to consider the following things we have talked about over the semester:

• Paragraph organization
• Sentence structure
• Word choice
• Concise Writing
• Grammar

Good luck! Write a post that your mother would post on her refrigerator!
